Japanese Contemporary Imari Blue Porcelain Vase by Master Artist

About the Item

Exquisite Japanese contemporary decorative porcelain vase, hand painted in blue on a beautifully shaped body in pure white, a signed piece by widely acclaimed master porcelain artist from the Imari-Arita region of Japan. This artist is the recipient of numerous prestigious awards for his exceptional porcelain work and his unique signature gold and platinum work on porcelain. In 2016, the British Museum added a work by this artist to its collection of contemporary Japanese porcelain in the Imari-Arita polychrome enamel tradition. The artist's profile is available upon request. This stunning porcelain vase serves as a canvas to boast rocky shorelines with cliffs and old pine trees gracefully reaching out all the way to the clouds, with mountain peaks in the distance, as the viewer turns the vase to explore the entiety of the scene, a dramatic scene of the countrside hand-painted in underglaze cobalt blue continues to entertain the viewer who is turning the vase to enjoy the details and explore all four panels of scenery. This exquisite large porcelain vase comes in a custom made wooden case signed by the artist. Dimensions: H 23.5 in D 13 in “Fired-on gold,” the artist's signature style highlights unique techniques for incorporating gold and platinum into the hand painting and multiple firing processes that yield a stunningly opulent look. The polychrome overglaze is fired at 800 degrees, followed by the application of gold and platinum that are fired at slightly lower temperature to maintain the luster of the precious metals. As a result, a single piece may undergo as many as 5-10 firings.
